The professor called out names for the assignment.
"Song BoRa - Kim TaeHyung"
I stood up from my seat, looking around the classroom for my partner. A boy at the far end of the class stood up, already looking at me, rather staring with an expressio...

"No. This is so not your type. Show me that white one."
"Joon, I am losing my temper. I am going in Jeans and this blouse. If you don't like it you can leave me here."
"Are you done? Now show me that white one." I sighed. Namjoon wasn't having any of my excuses today. After seeing me not in a dress, he went into my room to select the dress I should be wearing while Sunhi sits quietly to notice the 'stylist' side of Namjoon. She had a sweet smile throughout the 15 minutes Namjoon spent going through the clothes I owned. Was that smile genuine or she tried being sweet, no one knows except her. I was only bothered by Namjoon at that moment.
"No, this white is too innocent. Gosh! What do you even wear to parties?" He said after looking for the white one he had eyes on.
"Like I ever go to parties" I rolled my eyes. He stood up from my bed he was sitting on. Sighing, he finally looked for himself in my closet.
"I guess this would look perfect." He said, picking out a dress I last wore after graduating from High School. I deadpanned looked at him.
"I won't fit in it. What are you even thinking?" He listened none my excuses and pushed me in the bathroom handing me the dress. "Just try. I am sure it will fit. You have lost weight since high school if you didn't notice." He laughed.
I put on the dress, and to my surprise, it fit me perfectly. I went out to have both Namjoon and Sunhi smiling at me with thumbs up. Soon we left for this 'new club' Namjoon had been raving about since yesterday. It felt weird to be sitting behind while Sunhi sat in the front seat in the car Namjoon was driving. Talking to her on the way seemed awkward initially but thanks to Namjoon, it wasn't much awkward later. He knows I don't converse more openly with new people so he helped out with the icebreakers and then we both chatted as if we know each other for years. So yes, my apprehensions about her were wrong. It was just me getting possessive about Namjoon. Though I still am, I guess I will get used to him having a girlfriend eventually.
We reached the club which didn't seem to be new in town at all. With the muffling sound of songs playing inside the Club and people shouting with joy and the almost full parking, I knew I have no idea about the Clubs in the city.
Namjoon ordered for shots as soon as we entered. We were sitting at the stools near the bar while we waited for our shots. "Let's get a bit drunk before we head to the dance floor." He said and we both girls agreed. Dancing without getting drunk is a bit difficult, especially when I can't seem to see any space on the dance floor. It was jam-packed.
Our shots arrived and Joon Shouted, "Bottoms up! Shall we?" He clicked his glass with Sunhi's and mine. He gulped 5 in a row while I settled for 2 and Sunhi gulped 3. Looks like I am the only one with the lowest drinking capability. My head started feeling dizzy and the vodka already started burning my throat and the intestines.
Soon we 3 were dancing like idiots on the dance floor. But we were not the only idiots dancing so it didn't matter at all. The alcohol is the best when you want to leave all your consciousness and fear about others eyes on you.
Namjoon got a call and excused himself out of the club. Sunhi and I took the chance to visit washroom for the pee break. Once we were done smelling vomits in the washroom, we came back to notice more crowd in the club. "This club is definitely very popular" I shouted to Sunhi noticing all the new crowd that had joined. "Yup, it is."
I was at the bar and asked for a glass of water. Joon patted my shoulder and shouted my name. I turned to find a new person standing along with him. Amidst all my attire change and catching up with Sunhi, I almost forgot that Namjoon had invited Taehyung too for this 'assignment partner dates.'
Taehyung shook hands with Sunhi and me along with his boxy smile. Namjoon ordered for shots again to get Taehyung drunk. Wow! Today isn't gonna be a nice night Bora! I am not good at handling alcohol. There are two extremes if I get fully drunk. Either I sleep anywhere and then take ages to wake up, or I get into this babbling girl which won't shut up, which I must mention, Joon finds cute. I DON'T. Well, I don't remember most of it. But joining the bits and pieces I remember and listening to the remaining from Joon, I basically hate my drunk self. And I hoped and prayed for a sleepy drunk Bora while we all gulped another round of shots.
I was still a bit sober while we all were dancing on the dance floor. We were enjoying our time dancing and laughing to the weird moves we were trying to pull imagining ourselves like some cool dancers. I am sure we looked like penguins running and flapping wings.
Soon we all were drunk when the shots finally hit our senses because Sunhi and Joon couldn't stop flirting and dancing while we were dancing along with them. They would definitely not do this in their senses. Taehyung and I gave them their little private space, which wasn't really private seeing the crowd gathered on a Saturday night. We both were enjoying dancing when he asked me in my ear sending shivers down my spine, "Do you want some more shots?" I was still feeling the tingling at my ear and before I could comprehend and reply to his question, he pulled me towards the bar.
"If we all get drunk, who will drive? I am not drinking anymore?" I said with my senses kicking back in. He looked at me and then laughed. "You think Namjoon didn't arrange for that?" He replied. I shrugged. I knew he had a full on plan to get drunk today. Of course, he would have arranged for something.
I guess Taehyung read my mind and voiced my thoughts, "He called a driver who will drive you guys back. I don't get drunk easily so I'll drive back anyway." I nodded while he ordered for shots.
"Weren't you alone at your home this weekend? Will you be okay going back home alone?" I asked remembering that his friends were out this weekend. He shook his head my question.
"Like I just said, I don't get drunk easily. So it will be fine. Moreover, why are you asking? You want to come along with me?" he asked with a smirk. He laughed at me rolling eyes at him. We drank one after another shot. Now we rolled on our stools to have a look at the people dancing. We couldn't find Namjoon and Sunhi and concluded that they must have left for more 'private space'.
"You got a boyfriend? He asked me out of the blue while my drunk-self laughed. He was confused at me laughing hysterically at his question. "Does it look like I have or will ever have one?" I replied between my laughs. "Namjoon is the only boy I have ever been closest to. I am too shy/introvert/reserved whatever you want to call me, for having a boyfriend." He nodded.
"What about you?" I asked out of curiosity. "Had one in high school and one in the first year of college. Neither was serious. Been single since." I nodded to his response.
We chatted for some more time, when he suddenly asked, "Will you be my wing(wo)man tonight?"
I almost choked on the soft drink I was drinking. What?

I am personally not very satisfied with this chapter. Sorry about that. I will try to make it better in the further chpaters.
